Clinical Trial Summary

Prospective, randomized study, including full term parturients scheduled for caesarean section under spinal anesthesia. Spinal anesthesia was performed in sitting position with a 25 G spinal needle and all patients received 15 ml/kg of crystalloid intravenously during the spinal block. Baseline hemodynamics: heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure were recorded before spinal anesthesia and intraoperatively. Postspinal hypotension, defined as decrease of Systolic blood pressure>20% from the baseline value, was managed using Ephedrine increments 6 mg/3min in patients of GE group or by 5 mcg Norepinephrine/3min for the patients of GN group. Intraoperative hemodynamic data of the 2 groups were compared.


Clinical Trial Description

Prospective, randomized study including full term parturients scheduled for caesarean section under spinal anesthesia. All patients were ASA status I/II and patients with arrhythmia were excluded. Spinal anesthesia was performed in sitting position at L3-4 or L4-5. A 25 G spinal needle was used for intrathecal injection of 8 mg of hyperbaric bupivacaine, 2.5 mcg sufentanil and 100 mcg morphine. All patients received 15 ml/kg of crystalloids intravenously during the spinal block. Patients were positioned in left lateral tilt position. Baseline hemodynamics; HR, systolic (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DPB) were recorded before spinal anesthesia and intraoperatively (every 2 min). Post anesthesia hypotension was defined as decrease of SBP>20% from the baseline value. If hypotension occurred, patients were randomized into 2 groups:

- GE group in which hypotension were managed using ephedrine increments of 6 mg Ephedrine every 3 min until correction of SBP

- GN group: patients of this group received 5mcg of Norepinephrine/3 min demographic and hemodynamic data of the two groups were compared. ;
